I learned about my uncle Jack's assassination when my mother picked me up from school and we saw the flag at half-mast. My father was distraught. The first person he called was the CIA desk chief, asking, "Did your people do this?" He then called Enrique Ruiz, a former Bay of Pigs Brigade commander and friend, asking the same question. CIA Director John McCollum visited our home that day and spent time with us. My father was devastated and walked around like a ghost for months. We hugged him under our yard's cedar tree, trying to comfort him during his grief.

Regular medical students, wearing white coats, spoke about being the reason that America’s calling you terrorists: 'we're the reason that America's calling you terrorists.' They added, 'if we're terrorists, we're proud to be terrorists because we're sending doctors around the world. And if that's our terror, then so be it.' Right? But here's this little island, a couple of miles away from America, you know, 90 miles away from America, and they have an a president who talks like us. They have a president who understands the need for a liberated Palestine. And I think that was, that definitely altered my world.

Speaker 1 argues that Cuba should make a deal and asks what that deal would entail and what Cuba should do. He describes Cuba as currently a failed nation, noting that they “don’t even have jet fuel to get for airplanes to take off” and that they are “plugging up their runway.” He says that the United States is talking to Cuba and to Marco Rubio, and asserts that Cuba should absolutely make a deal because it is a humanitarian threat. He emphasizes that many Cuban Americans will be very happy when they can return to greet their relatives and do things that they should have been allowed to do for a long time. He states his interest in the people who were “treated so badly by Castro and the Cuban authorities” and notes that they “have been treated horribly,” adding that they will see how it all turns out as “Cuba and us, we are talking.” Speaker 0 asks whether that would be a good deal. Speaker 1 responds by outlining the current situation: there is an embargo, there is no oil, there is no money, and there is “no anything.” He then asks rhetorically whether, if a deal isn’t made, the United States would consider an operation like the one in Venezuela. He says he doesn’t want to answer that, suggesting it would not be a very tough operation if he did answer, but states he does not think such an operation will be necessary. He concludes with “Mister president.”

President Eisenhower warned us against the emerging military industrial complex that would turn us into an imperium. My uncle's thousand days in office were a constant fight to keep the country out of war. They tried to trick him into the Bay of Pigs invasion, but he refused to send in the military. He realized he'd been tricked and later fired those involved in the deception. They tried to get him to invade Laos, Cuba, and Berlin, but he wouldn't. In Vietnam, he only sent advisors, but when he found out about the casualties, he ordered everyone home. Thirty days after signing that order, he was murdered. Johnson then reversed the order and sent in troops. These traumas, including my uncle's death, pushed us down the road Eisenhower warned against. Today, we are the military industrial complex, and nobody believes their voices are heard in Washington. To go back to our original idealism, we must look at the original trauma and expose what happened to my uncle.

When the speaker was a child, a nun and his father told him anyone born in the U.S. could be president. His father then said he could not become president because of the dangerous environment he grew up in. He describes dangerous toys from his childhood, like BB guns, electric football games, and a toy oven. He jokes that kids who get hurt by BB guns are too dumb to duck and don't deserve eyeballs. His cousin Eddie choked to death on a running back toy. He says the toy oven could bake pottery. He argues these dangerous toys are educational tools, teaching kids not to repeat mistakes. He doesn't have anything against dumb kids, just the dumb adults they become. He believes these toys should be in every kindergarten class across the country.

In 1969, I became deeply involved in the civil rights movement as a kid. I worked at an all-black swimming pool in Wilmington, Delaware, on the east side. I was connected to the thoughts and feelings of the people there, though I did not participate in marches or events like those in Selma.

In his 1961 farewell address, President Eisenhower warned against the undue influence of the military-industrial complex. John F. Kennedy's narrow 1960 election victory ushered in a new era, but he inherited the CIA's secret war in Cuba, culminating in the disastrous Bay of Pigs invasion. The Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962 brought the world to the brink of nuclear war. Amidst these crises, Kennedy's administration also grappled with conflicts in Laos and Vietnam. He publicly advocated for peace, urging a re-evaluation of relations with the Soviet Union, emphasizing our shared humanity and the need for a peace not enforced by American might.

Speaker 0 states they are not a communist, but confirms they are a Marxist. When asked to clarify the difference, Speaker 0 explains that several parties and countries are based on Marxism, such as Ghana and Great Britain, which has socialized medicine. These countries differ from outright communist countries, as they adhere to leftist or Marxist principles. Speaker 0 states that in their work with the Fair Play for Cuba Committee, they advocate for the restoration of diplomatic, trade, and tourist relations with Cuba.

For 9 years, I was a Communist Party member working as an FBI agent. The Communist conspiracy planned a violent revolution in America, disguising it as a Civil Rights movement. They exploited racial differences to divide us, creating chaos and violence. Their goal was to sow discord and weaken our society.

The speaker is asked to explain a discrepancy between their claim of being in Hong Kong during the Tiananmen Square protests in the spring of 1989 and reports that they didn't travel to Asia until August of that year. The speaker says they grew up in rural Nebraska, joined the National Guard at 17, and used the GI Bill to become a teacher. In the summer of 1989, they traveled to China and started a program taking basketball teams, baseball teams, and dancers back and forth to China to learn. They say their community knows who they are and that they have poured their heart into the community, while acknowledging they are not perfect. They claim to have been a bipartisan member of Congress and were elected governor twice. They admit to sometimes getting caught up in rhetoric. They say the experience in China made a difference in their life and that Donald Trump should have come on one of those trips. When asked again about the discrepancy, the speaker says they misspoke and were in Hong Kong and China during the democracy protest.

Someone sent the speaker a video of a young, talented person from Chicago attacking him, claiming his father was in the CIA. The speaker initially dismissed this as untrue. However, after his father's death in March, he learned his father was indeed involved in that world, which shocked him. The speaker questions how this person knew about his father's involvement in intelligence, given his father's age. The person in the video claimed the speaker was a CIA operative. The speaker vehemently denies this, expressing strong animosity towards the CIA. He also says the person has since claimed he is funded by Russia. The speaker finds the CIA accusation personally offensive.

I fought not for my country, but for politicians' agendas. I remember killing a man in his bedroom while his wife watched. He reached for a gun because I was in his room at 2 AM. I was there because of a political decision tied to George Bush's vendetta against Saddam Hussein, based on false claims of weapons of mass destruction. I wonder about the man I killed—what if we had met under different circumstances, like sharing coffee in Paris? Would we have liked each other?

The speaker, Leonard Patterson, was once a member of the Communist Party but left when he realized their true intentions. He believed the party aimed to use African Americans for a violent revolution to establish a Soviet dictatorship in the United States. Patterson warns that the civil rights movement in the US is following the same path as revolutions in China, Cuba, and Algeria.

Speaker 0 describes a long, forty-year conflict described as a Third World War waged by the CIA and the U.S. National Security Complex against people of the Third World, not the Soviets. He states that at least six million people have been killed in this war. He emphasizes that these are not Soviets and notes no parachuting into the Soviet Union to kill since 1954, when the Soviets developed the capability of dropping atomic weapons on the United States. He references CIA, Marine Corps, and three CIA Secret Wars. He recalls his 1975 position as chief of the Angola task force within the National Security Council, describing it as the third CIA secret war he was part of. He mentions the National Security Act of 1947 creating the National Security Council, and the CIA being given a charter to perform duties and functions necessary to national security interests, with vague authority to protect sources and methods. He says, in the mid-80s, he coined the term the Third World War after realizing the U.S. was not attacking the Soviet Union but people in the Third World. He characterizes the Third World War as the third bloodiest war in history, with operations conducted globally and a license to kill, smuggle drugs, and violate international law and principles of nations working together for a healthier and more peaceful world. He alleges the U.S. legal system was being converted to give the CIA control of society. He notes there is massive documentation of CIA secret wars, citing the Church Committee investigation of 1975, which found 900 major operations and 3,000 minor operations in the fourteen years prior. Extrapolating over the forty-plus years of CIA activity, he claims 3,000 major operations and over 10,000 minor operations, all allegedly illegal and disruptive to other societies, with many bloody and gory. He asserts the CIA organized the overthrow of functioning constitutional democracies, created secret armies, and directed them to fight on multiple continents. He claims the agency encouraged ethnic minorities to rise up: the Mosquito Indians in Nicaragua, the Kurds in the Middle East, the Hmongs in Southeast Asia. He alleges death squads funded by the CIA, such as the Treasury Police in El Salvador, responsible for most of the 50,000 killed in the 1980s, and 70,000 before that. He describes orchestration by the CIA through secret teams and propaganda, leading to involvement in the Korean War and attacks on China from Quemoy and Matsu, Thailand, and Tibet. He notes drug trafficking, the Korean War resulting in about a million deaths, and the Vietnam War, with CIA involvement at every level, contributing to the creation of the Golden Triangle and the Golden Crescent, where heroin became a major outcome, with Air America aircraft shipping arms for allies and returning with heroin, and claims President Carter and Admiral Turner brag about the Afghanistan operation as the largest CIA secret war operation in history. He concludes that the Golden Crescent remains the largest source of heroin today. He summarizes that the Third World War, waged by the CIA, the U.S. National Security Complex, and the military, has resulted in widespread devastation, especially in the Third World, as opposed to Europe where there is no equivalent destructive capability. He notes that those regions rarely have the means to hurt the U.S., questioning the motive of targeting those who cannot defend themselves.

The speaker states they applied to the CIA and have received criticism, including from Putin, for being from a "CIA family." The speaker acknowledges their father worked in conjunction with the CIA and that they attempted to join the agency. The speaker says Putin is attacking their father as being connected to the CIA, which the speaker says is not untrue. After their father's death, the speaker learned their father was involved in that world, which they say shocked them. The speaker concludes by saying that this is a fact, whether or not people believe it.

My uncle, President Kennedy, resisted pressure from the military and intelligence to start wars, including the invasion of Cuba. He refused to send combat troops to Vietnam, only allowing military advisers. After learning of American casualties, he ordered all troops out of Vietnam, but tragically, he was assassinated a month later. Kennedy's presidency was marked by his conflict with the military and intelligence apparatus, culminating in his efforts to end US involvement in Vietnam.

These students who were regular medical students, they came and spoke and basically what they were saying was they were wearing their white coats, know, they looked like medical students. They were like, we're the reason that America's calling you terrorists. And they were saying, well, if we're terrorists, we're proud to be terrorists because we're sending doctors around the world. And if that's our terror, then so be it. Yep. Right? But here's this little island, a couple of miles away from America, you know, 90 miles away from America, and they have an a president who talks like us. They have a president who understands the need for a liberated Palestine. And I think that was, that definitely altered my world.

I outline the speaker’s central claims about George Soros, the CIA, and global political influence. The speaker contends that George Soros has been one of the CIA’s most valuable private assets for over forty years, acting as the civilian, deniable funding arm of American regime-change operations worldwide. Because of this, Soros is not only allowed in the United States but protected there, enabling him to operate with impunity, which the speaker says explains his arrogance and continued influence. The speaker traces a pattern of Soros-backed “color revolutions” starting with Serbia in 2000, refined in Georgia in 2003, Ukraine in 2004, and the Arab Spring in 2011. They assert that logos for USAID, the National Endowment for Democracy (NED), and the Open Society Foundations appear in all these cases, framing Soros as central to these movements. According to the speaker, the Arab Spring served as a trial run for Europe’s migrant crisis. They claim that in 2011 the CIA and Soros turned that playbook on Libya and Syria. Gaddafi allegedly warned in March 2011 that removing him would unleash millions to flood Europe from Africa; eight months later, Gaddafi was dead, Libya descended into chaos, and migrant waves began as predicted. By 2015–2016, the speaker asserts, battle-hardened jihadists and economic migrants were crossing the Mediterranean with iPhones, prepaid cards, and Twitter guides written in Arabic, described as the same social media mobilization tactics used in Kyiv and Tahrir Square. Wayne Madsen is cited as having called this pattern out in 2015, described by the speaker as a deliberate CIA social-engineering operation to fracture Europe from within, applying the same playbook to new targets. The speaker then asserts that the United States has been subject to this strategy from 2020 to the present, pointing to the summer riots of 2020 as an example. The claim continues that Soros’s Open Society Foundations donated at least $33,000,000 to groups that organized and sustained the 2020 riots, and that Soros-backed NGOs provided lawyers, maps, and logistics for the southern border caravans, as well as funding to influence police departments and district attorneys in major cities, effectively helping to elect them. The speaker argues that Soros is implementing the color-revolution playbook “on us now,” with the target being ordinary Americans rather than foreign nations. A historical reference is made to JFK, who allegedly spoke of splintering the CIA after the Bay of Pigs betrayal, a chance JFK did not realize, leaving the world the speaker claims the CIA built. The speaker notes that Hungary, a country of 9 million, has passed Stop Soros laws and expelled his operations, asking why the United States cannot do the same, and suggests finishing what JFK started.

Coming from Cuba, I understand the value of freedom after losing it there. In 1975, hearing Jimmy Carter campaign for president reminded me of Fidel Castro, leading me to believe he was a communist. This realization sparked my interest in politics.

The speaker recalls whether he considered joining the CIA before journalism; "No. Yeah." He notes growing up in Georgetown and says, "And this was obviously, it was ten years before 09/11. It was eleven years, 1990." There were "a ton of former CIA officers in our neighborhood." His father "worked for the government," and CIA officers, from his perspective as a child, were like kind of dashing, physically brave intellectuals, including "some guy who'd studied classics at Yale who wound up in Beirut as station chief." He says he wanted "an interesting life"—"That's the that's the main thing that I wanted out of life." He adds, "I never was interested in money" and, "I had the privilege of not being interested in money because I I didn't grow up in a family where we were worried about money, so I just never really thought about money."

Lee Harvey Oswald defected to the Soviet Union during the Cold War, claiming allegiance to them. He had insider information from his time as a radar operator in Japan. Upon returning to the US, he was welcomed instead of arrested, leading to theories of him being part of a Navy intelligence program. Oswald was contacted by a CIA asset and sent to Dallas.

Secrecy is repugnant in a free society. The assassination of President Kennedy occurred at 1 PM CST. We must overcome societal divisions – racial, economic, etc. – and work together. The assassinations of both Kennedy brothers are acknowledged. The dangers of excessive concealment outweigh the justifications for it. We must not let the need for security be used to expand censorship. The CIA’s purpose was creating constant wars for the military-industrial complex. Many Americans distrust the Warren Commission report. We must protect our freedoms; they are coming after us. No official should use my words as an excuse to censor, stifle dissent, or withhold facts. Some media push personal agendas, threatening our democracy. We seek a true peace, not one enforced by American weapons; we all share this planet and our children’s future.
